winter question

 

is death the deception

   or dream the illusion

wrapping around the human soul

the incurable sin

         inescapable sickness

saying, meaning the same

      in our different ways

stifled breath and the clock moves too fast

winter sheets attract the cold

that’s growing from the inside out
